Steeda cold air intake, so easy a 12 year old can do it.
5 Attachment(s)
My 12 year old son just installed a Steeda cold air intake in my 2005 Focus. I have to say I am impressed with the quality of this system. It was very easy to install and the horsepower increase is noticeable. I wish Steeda would sell parts for Rangers but for now they only cover the Focus, Fusion, and Mustang. I thought I would throw up some pictures of the install. Enjoy!

Yeah I'd be a prick if I was stuck in a Mitsubishi too.

Yeah too bad. But I didn't buy my Ranger or my Focus for horsepower. That's why I have a 69 Chevelle and a 63 Dart. All I said is that there is a notable difference in the horsepower after installing the cold air intake, which there is. You feel like you need to try to run someone down because you have a demotivational picture that you found on the internet. If you have real proof that cold air intakes don't add horsepower post it up. Until then SHUT THE F**K UP.

As far as your sensitive "feel"I barely noticed a difference in my pants after gaining ~85whp on a dynodynamics going from my stock snail to the fp-red I put in. Quote:

Port the heads and add a set of big cams then maybe. Add boost on a stock N/A car then for sure. Not to mention I think ford has the engineering know how to make a little component such as a filter, that will not restrict the entire system and lose efficiency. Quote:

Sorry dude, your alleged cold air intake has done NOTHING to boost horsepower or improve anything at all. They do not do shit and they are a total gimmick. The mere fact that you think you felt a difference would seem to disprove your "25 years of experience". Since anyone that ACTUALLY knows anything about performance enhancements knows that most are not noticeable to the driver, only on a computer or a clock.
You should have your 12yr old uninstall it, pack it up, and send it back for a refund. Use the money you saved to buy ice cream or something. And BTW, the stock intake on our trucks is already a cold air intake and is already sized in excess of what the engine will ever actually need. Sorry. |

Yeah seriously. And you know what else is annoying. Its not cold. Its not like the air is being refrigerated. It is FRESH AIR we want to suck into the engine. The intake air will never be colder than the outside air temperature. So even calling them COLD air intakes is dumb.

Well, guys, way to shit on a guys enjoyable afternoon wrenching with his son. Weather or not the intake makes more power, he likes it, and he bonded with his son.
You guys need to realize that there are better ways to feel better about yourselves than by shitting on others. |
